Precipitin Reactions in Hypersensitivity Pneumonitides.

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1967
SummarySera from patients with farmers' lung, pigeon breeders' disease, bagassosis, and maple bark strippers' disease were examined for the presence of precipitating antibodies against the corresponding antigenic materials. All sera showed reactions with 3 or 4 of the antigens. The one exception was the serum from the patient with maple bark strippers'

Low molecular weight C1q-precipitins in hypocomplementemic vasculitis-urticaria syndrome: partial purification and characterization as immunoglobulin.

Journal of Immunology, 1978
A lupus-like syndrome involving chronic urticaria with cutaneous vasculitis, systemic symptoms, hypocomplementemia with preferential depletion of C1q, and low m.w. (7S) C1q-precipitins has recently been defined.

Aspergillus Serology Predicts Relapse in Chronic Pulmonary Aspergillosis: Implications for Personalised Follow‐Up Strategies

Mycoses, Volume 69, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Relapses occur in up to 40% of patients after prolonged courses of antifungal treatment for chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA). The factors predisposing to relapse remain poorly defined. Methods We conducted a retrospective study of adults treated for ≥ 6 months with oral azoles for CPA.

Improvements in the preparation of heterologous antilymphocyte globulin with special reference to absorption and diethylaminoethyl cellulose batch production [PDF]

, 1969
Antilymphocyte gamma-G globulin (ALGG) was produced from the serum of immunized horses. Modifications of the preliminary absorption techniques permitted the removal of undesirable, extraneous antibodies.

Vector Potential Index: Bridging Competence and Contribution as an Integrative Measure of Relative Transmission Capability

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
The Vector Potential Index (VPI) is a novel metric for evaluating and comparing the potential of blood‐feeding arthropod vectors to contribute to zoonotic vector‐borne disease transmission. Taking a meta‐analysis approach, the VPI combines vector competence and host use data obtained from scientific literature to assign relative and absolute VPI ranks ...
